that of your socket prior to connecting the steam cleaner to your
mains power supply.

identical connection values. Send the appliance to the Royal
Appliance Customer Service Centre for repair.

if using an extension cable. Ask a specialist dealer if necessary.

not be kinked, pinched or run over.

or the handicapped!
